Plumbing, Electricity and Columns, Oh My!

Things are going well over at the house. There is wiring everywhere, plumbing climbing up to the 2nd story, and outlets galore. The outlets are especially important, considering the original house seemed to have only in each room . . . and hardly any were 3-prong. Our only bathroom had no outlets at all. As I'm sure you can imagine, I think we're going to plug stuff in just for the hell of it!

Evan went by tonight, and found the front door and all of the windows hanging out in the kitchen, waiting to be installed. The subfloor in the living room is ripped up, too, so that the old furnace can be lifted out of the crawl space by a 2-ton jack. There's a good chance we'll have some dry wall up by the end of the week.

Outside, things are looking like an HGTV series called "Destroy This Yard." Both of the holly bushes have been ripped in half (hooray!) and between the piles of junk, you can see that the lawn has turned into a meadow of sorts. The porch now has two brick colums ready for supports to be added.

So, lots of big changes, but none of them photo-worthy per se. I'll get some more pictures up when there's something worth seeing!
